I like this song except that Fonzworth is on it. In principal he should be dope. He runs with OutKast, is dapper, and can dance. But NO! Reminds me of the first time I heard MC Paul Barman. Paul’s a super-cool guy in person, but I just can’t get with his raps. Anyway, I cued it up in Serato to cut directly to Andre 3K’s verse, rendering it Fonzworthless.

MTV blasts Gucci Mane’s last interview before being hauled off to jail for a year for violating the terms of his probation stemming from a previous assault conviction. Since his release in 2006 Gucci Mane has completed no more than 25 of his 600 hours of community service. Mind you that Gucci barely got off an unrelated murder charge when he shot and killed rapper Henry Lee Clark III (Pookie Loc) in 2005. The charge was dropped as the grand jury in the case ruled the shooting was in self-defense.

Looping around the city of Tokyo, the Yamanote line is one of the world’s busiest commuter trains. While it’s one of the best and cheapest ways to get around Tokyo, the Yamanote line isn’t without its more than fair share of “issues” (groping, stinky drunkards, overcrowding). Seahope Japan, an electronics company, despite the stupid name, has just released their signature Yamanote line of watches, so now you can take the whole gropy, stinky, drunk and sweaty experience with you. yeah!

When your apartment gets to this point, I wonder if you even bother shitting in the toilet, or anywhere near the bathroom, for that matter. The moment you feel a dump coming on, do you just drop your pants, squat down and start squeezing no matter where you are in the apartment? I’m also assuming you don’t wipe if you’re willing to live in this, too. According to Houston-Imports.com:

This has nothing to do with the Hurricane. We had a resident who had an outstanding balance for over a month and no one could get ahold of her. The Bookkeeper went inside after so many tries to leave a note and this is what we found.

The pictures do NO justice. There is suppose to be 2 cats living here but we cant find them (we think they’re dead somewhere inside the apartment-we contacted the SPCA). The place REEKS to say the least, i gagged non stop.

You REALLY wanna see the rest of the pics. Trust me, you’ll be better off for it.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Run-D.M.C. could “Walk This Way” into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The 1980s rap act, along with Metallica and the Stooges are among the nine nominees for next year’s hall of fame class, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation announced Monday.

The other nominees are guitarist Jeff Beck, singer Wanda Jackson, Little Anthony and the Imperials, War, Bobby Womack, and disco and R&B group Chic, the only nominee back from last year’s ballot.

The five leading vote-getters will be announced in January and inducted April 4, 2009, in Cleveland.

The ceremony typically has been held in New York but is returning to Cleveland after more than a decade-long absence. Tickets will be made available to the public for the first time.

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five opened the door for rap at the Rock Hall as the first hip-hop act to be inducted in 2007. Now, Run-D.M.C., nominated in the first year of its eligibility, has the chance to follow on the strength of rock and rap blends such as the 1986 cover of Aerosmith’s “Walk This Way” and classics like “It’s Tricky” and “My Adidas.” …

So Kayne’s released a mastered version of Love Lockdown, a song that I took as a cry for help from Young Yeezy. As it turns out, his VMA performance of the emo-diocre song must have prompted millions of Becky’s to break out the Visa’s because Love Lockdown is the #1 song download in both the Zune marketplace and iTunes… Finally something that Mac and PC users can agree on.

Twelve to one.

For every twelve voters who you talk to at their doors, one voter goes and votes who would not otherwise have voted. If you’re asking: “how can I be most effective in helping my candidate win the election?” then an organizer’s answer is going to be: knock on doors.

In a Yale study by Donald Green and Alan Gerber on the effects of doorknocking in local elections, they concluded that a conservative estimate was that “12 successful face-to-face contacts translated into one additional vote.”

This figure, moreover, is a conservative estimate. When calculating the effects of actual treatment, we regarded any conversation with a member of the household as a “contact.” Only about half of these conversations occurred directly with a subject in the treatment group; the remainder involved urging a housemate to vote and requesting that this message be passed along to the intended subject. Had we restricted the definition of contact to direct conversations with the subject, the apparent effects of canvassing would have been much greater.

Although the study aimed at local elections, the principle is sound. Face-to-face contact is the single most important effort a volunteer can contribute to his or her candidate.

DJ LIL TIGER starts things off with a love-themed Soul set with splashes of classic disco and contemporary R&B. EMPANADAMN holds it down in the second half with a mesh of synthy dance, pop, Hip-Hop and electro.
